A former senior civil servant has accused No10 of lying about what it knew of allegations facing Chris Pincher, claiming Boris Johnson was briefed "in person" about an investigation into his conduct.Lord McDonald, who was previously in charge at the Foreign Office, claimed Boris Johnson was briefed "in person" about an investigation into Mr Pincher's conduct as a minister at the department.
However, Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab told LBC's Tom Swarbrick it is "not clear" to him "precisely what the PM was made aware of" concerning allegations regarding Mr Pincher. "In relation to 2019 the complaint that was made was not something that triggered formal disciplinary action."
